Entrance figurine welcoming guests to Haw Par Villa
|
|
|
|
Now is when the figurines started getting weird
|
|
|
|
|
Looks more Japanese than Chinese, but oh well
|
|
|
|
|
Moms everywhere will appreciate this one
|
|
|
|
The Laughing Buddha
|
|
|
|
The Starved Buddha (he's not laughing now, is he)
|
|
|
|
Looks like one of the deformed figures from Toy Story. I have no idea what it is doing here, though
|
|
|
|
|
What a let-down
|
|
|
|
"Filthy Blood Pond"... right
|
|
|
|
Extracting human body parts, one of the ten parts of Chinese Hell.
|
|
|
|
Reasoning behind extracting the inner organs: not showing filial obediance (and I though the "Boogey man" stories were bad)
|
|
|
|
|
Chopping off limbs was another one of the punishments
|
|
|
|
Or being crushed under a stone
|
|
|
|
It should be clear by this point that the Haw Par Villa must have been Steven King's idea
